Google has started to roll out the stable version of Chrome 96 web browser for PCs and smartphones. The update was in the works for quite some time now. The new version brings a few changes and improvements to the browser. One of the most noticeable changes is the addition of Windows 11 design elements.
All context menus, popups and windows on the recently launched Windows 11 have rounded corners and now Google has incorporated a similar design language in the Chrome web browser. With the latest update, the browser can now have rounded corners on menu items and other UI elements. However, the new design is not live by default and users have to enable it themselves. The option to enable the design is currently hidden under flags.
